Chapter 51

Convenient

What's inconvenient?

He is a battalion commander, and he has already met the conditions for his family to accompany him.

It's just that the conditions are a bit more difficult.

He originally thought that she would hesitate, after all, things happened too fast.

Even if she agreed to go to the military region with him, she would not tell him now, but would consider it for a while.

But she was only stunned for a moment and made a decision.

This is the girl he chose.

She trusts him.

Even if the road ahead is vast and there are thousands of mountains and rivers between them, she still did not hesitate and chose him straightforwardly.

Liang Jinxi was deeply moved. He reached out and touched her hair, then slid down, held her shoulders, and pulled her into his arms.

Lin Shu was stiff at first, but soon relaxed herself, even reached out and hugged his waist, accepting his hug.

She agreed, so she had to try to get used to it.

But he didn't do anything, just hugged her like this, quietly hugging for a long time. After obtaining Lin Shu's consent, Liang Jinxi told his family in the afternoon.

Everyone was a little surprised.

After all, it was only the eighth day of the first lunar month, and it was originally said that this time we could stay until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and leave after the Little New Year.

"Is there any urgent matter in the army that calls you back?"

Auntie Hu asked the same question as Lin Shu before.

In fact, everyone had this question in mind.

"Well, there are some things to deal with there. Anyway, there is nothing to do at home, so I want to go back and report first," Liang Jinxi said, "and it's not far away now, I will come back in a while."

This is the advantage of the new military region.

Auntie Hu and her family were a little reluctant at first, but they immediately felt much better after hearing this, and Father Liang even said, "Then you should go back quickly."

Zhu Zi and Shi Tou looked eagerly and said, "Second Uncle, I heard that family members in the army can also visit. When can we go to the army to take a look?"

The word "visit" was just learned by them from Feng Feng.

The children had been very close all night. They were envious of Fengfeng because he was born in the army and grew up in the army. They kept asking him about the army.

They admired their second uncle and yearned for the military camp, but Liang Jinxi was serious and could end the topic with just one sentence. They couldn't understand why they heard Fengfeng say that.

Fengfeng was not afraid of boasting.

Even though he had gone to Xizhou City with his parents when he was three years old, it didn't stop him from describing the life in the army vividly and exaggeratedly.

So when Zhuzi and Shitou heard that their second uncle's new army was not far from home, they couldn't help it.

Liang Jinxi said, "Yeah," and said, "Of course."

The two silly boys were so excited that they clenched their fists!

But Fengfeng didn't laugh at them at this time. He looked at Liang Jinxi, then at his sister, and felt a little heavy.

When his sister said she was going back to the Youth Institute, and the "fake brother-in-law" went to see her off, he felt even heavier.

However, he opened his mouth but still did not ask him to go to the Youth Institute with his sister.

Although he really wanted to talk to his sister alone for a while.

But he still found a chance to talk to his sister in the evening.

"Sister, are you really dating Captain Liang? Do you want to marry him?"He asked without beating around the bush.

But Lin Shu was very happy with his directness.

It would be a headache if something was kept in one's heart.

She said "hmm", "Fengfeng, you see, the Liang family and Captain Liang are all very good people."

Fengfeng's eyes were a little red.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say, is he repaying a favor?

But his sister had already explained the whole story to him. He was not a person who could not distinguish right from wrong, so he could not say such words.

After a long pause, he spoke again: "Are you happy then, sister? If it's just because you owe a favor, sister, I will pay it back. Don't marry him just because you owe a favor. I will find a way to repay their family's favor. Have you forgotten that mom told us that when we get married in the future, the most important thing is the person's character and personality, whether he is suitable to live with us for a lifetime, and whether there will be a sense of happiness after getting along for a while, rather than any external reasons?"

His mother used to say this to his sister, and he heard it.

Later, when something happened at home and his mother sent him to the Song family, she told him exactly what she said.

No matter how much he could understand, he remembered every word.

When Lin Shu heard what he said before, her eyes were still a little sore.

But she was stunned when she heard what he said later.

Then after a while, she reached out and touched his head, saying, "It's like this. Mom means that when we consider a marriage partner, we should not be influenced by any external factors. If that person is a person of noble character and suitable for us, we should not give up on him and do things that hurt him because the outside disturbances have blinded our eyes."

She doesn't know if he is the most suitable for her now.

But he is indeed a person of noble character and worthy of her trust.

Auntie Hu stood outside the door.

Originally, she also wanted to come to talk to Lin Shu, but she didn't want to hear these words.

She wiped her eyes, turned around and left.

This child, just as she thought, has clear eyes and a clear mind.

There is no need for her to say anything more.

*****

Liang Jinxi came back to stay for a few days. His original things had been sent directly to the Chengxi Military Region, so there was nothing to pack. He left early the next morning.

After Liang Jinxi left, life in Qinghe Brigade remained the same.

The Gao family was relieved when they heard that Liang Jinxi had left and did not see him do anything to their family.

But after being relieved, Gao's mother began to regret her son's new marriage.

Second marriage, with a daughter who was a burden.

Except that the family conditions were not bad and he had a job in the small canteen of the commune brick kiln, there was nothing else good.

The key point was that Zhou Ronghua's mother Xu Guizhen directly proposed that after the two got married, her son would move out and live with that woman, and he could only pay two yuan a month to the family for her and the old man's retirement, and ten yuan of the remaining thirteen yuan would be paid to that woman!

How dare the second-married couple make such a shameless request!

This was simply cutting flesh from Gao's mother's heart!

Not only Gao's mother, but also other people in the Gao family were extremely unwilling!

It was just that they were indeed afraid that Liang Jinxi would ruin their son/eldest brother's job, so they could only bite their teeth and agree.

But now that Liang Jinxi left, the resentment that was suppressed before could not be suppressed immediately.

Gao's mother said directly to Gao Chongping: "Big brother, I see that Liang Jinxi did nothing. I think why don't we forget about the marriage with the Zhou family and find you a virgin girl. Your aunt has told me several times."

Gao Chongping pursed his lips.

The torment these days was not easy.

If he lost this job, he could not imagine his possible life in the future.

Also, he accidentally heard his parents and his brother say that if his brother couldn't find a job at that time, he would let him take over their job.

Everyone has selfishness.

Even if he is filial and he values ​​his younger brother and nephew, it does not mean that he is really willing to burn himself to dedicate to them. He was silent for a while, and said, "Mom, the marriage has been decided. Do you think you can marry the niece of Deputy Director Xu's family whenever you want? We offended the Liang family first, and now we have to break off the marriage and offend Deputy Director Xu again. What kind of job can I have, and what future can the third child have?"

Mother Gao regretted it so much.

But Gao Chongping also knew his mother's weakness.

He paused, and then said, "I heard that our brigade is going to build a primary school, and there will be two teacher quotas at that time. The third child will graduate in the second half of the year. Let's see if he can get a quota at that time."

Sure enough, Mother Gao calmed down.

I think I should get along with Deputy Director Xu more.

My mind became active again.

*****

Liang Jinxi was transferred to Chengxi Military Region to be responsible for the high-tech reconnaissance training of a new recruit regiment.

The new recruit regiment is stationed in the mountainous area, more than an hour's drive from the military region headquarters.

He set out early on the 9th day of the first lunar month and arrived at the military region in the afternoon. He first reported to the military region headquarters and then went directly to the mountainous corps.

He estimated that his marriage application might not have been sent yet, so he had already written another one last night.

Brigade Commander Zheng, the head of the mountainous corps, was a little surprised to see Liang Jinxi. He flipped through his file and said, "Didn't the doctor say that you should take a longer leave? How come you are back so soon? Although this spirit is good, you should know that as a soldier, a strong body and a sensitive reaction are particularly important. Don't ruin your military career for a momentary impulse. "

Brigade Commander Zheng was also transferred to Chengxi Military Region from the border troops.

Liang Jinxi has been his subordinate since he joined the army. He was promoted by him and recommended to the military academy.

This time, he needed a person in charge to set up a new recruit regiment, and he thought of Liang Jinxi at the first time.

Liang Jinxi said: "I know my body and I won't do anything wrong. I will control the intensity of training during this period. And I won't just lead the troops to drill when I return to the team. Am I not mainly responsible for high-tech reconnaissance training? I will learn about the situation in the regiment during this period, and also organize the training plan and schedule. But there is one more thing,"

He handed over his marriage application and said, "My family has arranged a marriage for me. I wrote a marriage application and wanted to ask the brigade commander to review it. I sent one yesterday, but I thought it might not arrive, so I wrote another one and brought it over. "

Brigade Commander Zheng was stunned.

I was surprised when he heard that his family had arranged a marriage. He had sent one yesterday, but it was not enough. Today he sent another one. How anxious was he?

After all, he was the one who was promoted by himself. He knew his situation very well.

There were so many relatives and comrades who were watching his marriage and introducing him to other people. He even helped to stop many of them!

But Brigade Commander Zheng was also a stable person.

He was very surprised, but he didn't say much. Instead, he reached out and took the application, pulled it out, and opened it. He scanned the whole thing at a glance.

Then he got the most important information.

Lin Shu, a former educated youth from Qinghe Brigade, Yaoshan Commune, Yuanhe County.

Father Lin Zhaotong, former political commissar of the People's Liberation Army Chengxi Military Region, major general, later transferred to deputy secretary of Xizhou City Committee, was sent to Gannan in 1972 due to line issues, but retained his party membership.

Mother Li Huiru, former director of the office of the logistics department of the People's Liberation Army Chengxi Military Region, later transferred to Xizhou City State-owned Textile Factory as director of the textile factory office, now approved by the organization, she is in Gannan to take care of her husband Lin Zhaotong.

The surprise on Brigade Commander Zheng's face disappeared, but his face suddenly sank.

He raised his head and said, "Did your family arrange a marriage for you?"

"Yes,"

Liang Jinxi said, "Her grandmother is my mother's cousin. When she was sent to Qinghe Brigade, her mother asked my mother to give her to her, and my mother arranged our marriage. "

After saying that, he pushed a telegram to Brigade Commander Zheng.

It was the telegram his mother sent him before the New Year, "Go home for the New Year, your family has arranged a wife for you."

"Jinxi, this marriage may affect your future."

Brigade Commander Zheng put down his marriage application and said in a deep voice.

But after he finished speaking, he saw that Liang Jinxi's eyes opposite him did not move at all, so he knew that he had probably considered this matter a long time ago.

He sighed in his heart.

He knew too well what kind of person his subordinate was. Since he had already written the application and handed it to him like this, it was obvious that he had made a decision.

He considered, "Okay, but this matter is not that simple. I must ask for instructions from above."
